NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
Financial Statement Preparation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of deltathree, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to in this report as the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), of which these notes are a part, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information as of and for the periods presented have been included.
The results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Going Concern
The Company has sustained significant operating losses in recent periods, which has led to a significant reduction in its cash reserves. The Company has initiated a restructuring plan that has helped the Company cut its operating costs significantly and better align the Company’s operations with its current business model, but there are no assurances that these actions will be sufficient to return the Company to positive cash flow. At this time management is unable to determine if the Company has sufficient funds to continue its current operations over the foreseeable future if it does not receive additional financing. The Company is in the process of seeking additional financing, but has not yet entered into any definitive agreement or understanding regarding such financing and we cannot assure you that any third party will be willing or able to provide additional capital to us on favorable terms or at all. In addition, if additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, our existing stockholders may experience significant dilution.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions, primarily for allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and the useful lives of fixed assets and intangible assets, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2007, the FASB proposed a one-year deferral of Statement 157. FSP FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157,” delays the effective date of Statement 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company expects no material effect on its result of operations and financial position statements as a result of its adoption of SFAS 157.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the combination of dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under the Company’s stock option and stock incentive compensation plans, and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Dilutive common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of in-the-money shares, which is calculated, based on the average share price for each period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the exercise price of a share, the amount of compensation cost, if any, for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of estimated tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital, if any, when the share is exercised are assumed to be used to repurchase shares in the current period. We did not calculate the diluted earnings per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, since the company had a net loss.
2. Restatement
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company took a $200,000 charge as an initial estimate to the deferred revenue liability. As part of a continued review of the deferred revenue liability, the Company determined that amount was insufficient and should be adjusted for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, by an additional $396,000. Management has concluded that the error in the deferred revenue liability is not a result of its current operations but rather most likely occurred during the year ended December 31, 2005 and possibly years prior. Although the cumulative error might have been material to the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, management does not believe that restating the financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005, would have a material impact on the profit and loss statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007.
3. Restructuring
Due to the Company’s ongoing losses and reduction in cash, the Company has initiated a restructuring process in an attempt to cut the Company’s operating costs significantly and better align the Company’s operations with its current business model. In accordance with the restructuring, we have recently (i) subleased our New York office to a third party for the remaining term of the lease (as previously disclosed in the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on August 6, 2008) and accrued the shortfall between the rental amounts we will be receiving from the subtenant and the rental amount we need to pay to the landlord, legal costs and brokerage fees associated with the sublease and (ii) continued the reduction in force instituted during the first quarter of 2008 and reduced the number of full time employees from approximately 120 at the beginning of the year to 42. In total, we have recognized $585,000 in costs for this period that we believe relate directly to the restructuring.
4. Intangible Assets Impairment
The Company evaluates it long-lived intangible assets for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” and SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and intangible assets are subject to an annual test for impairment. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As part of its assessment of the Company’s operations, management has reached the conclusion that we will not invest significant resources into a segment of the business that the Company purchased as part of the Go2Call transaction. As a result, the Company has decided to write off $475,000, representing the entire amount of the asset allocated to that portion of the business, in the current period to properly adjust the value of the intangible asset associated with that asset.
5. Stock-Based Compensation
A. Options
Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123R. The Company adopted the provisions of FAS 123R on January 1, 2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year in 2006, using a modified prospective application. Under the modified prospective method, prior periods grant date fair values are not revised. The valuation provisions of FAS 123R apply to new awards and to awards that are outstanding on the effective date and subsequently modified or cancelled. Estimated compensation expense for awards outstanding at the effective date will be recognized over the remaining service period using the compensation cost calculated for pro forma disclosure purposes under FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (FAS 123).
The Company has no awards with market or performance conditions.
The Company used the implied volatility market-traded options in the Company’s stock for the expected volatility assumption input in the Black-Scholes model, consistent with the guidance is FAS 123R.
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the terms of the Company’s employee stock options. The Company does not target a specific dividend yield for its dividends payments but is required to assume a dividend yield as an input to the Black –Scholes model. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of future dividends payout and may be subject to substantial change in the future. The expected life of employee stock options represent the period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. The Black-Scholes model assumes that employee’s exercise behavior is a function of the option’s remaining contractual life and the extent to which the option is in-the-money. (i.e., the average stock price during the period is above the strike price of the stock option).
There were options representing the right to purchase 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, or the common stock, granted during the three months ended June 30, 2008.
B. Restricted shares of the Company’s common stock
The Company grants restricted shares of the common stock to retain, reward and motivate selected employees and directors whom we believe are critical to the future success of the Company. The restricted share plan has been approved by the Board of Directors. We record compensation expense associated with non-vested restricted shares which has been granted in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R). In accordance with the aforementioned statement, we calculate compensation expense on the date of grant (number of shares granted multiplied by the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant) and recognize this expense, adjusted for forfeitures, ratably over the applicable vesting period.
There were no restricted shares granted during the three months ended June 30, 2008.
3. Commitments and Contingencies
Regulation
On April 2, 2007, the Federal Communications Commission, or the FCC, issued an order (FCC 07-22) that tightens existing rules on protection and use of Customer Proprietary Network Information, or CPNI, and extends CPNI rules to interconnected voice over Internet protocol service providers. Although the rules are aimed in large part at preventing the practice of pretexting, where a caller impersonates a phone customer to gain access to his or her phone records, the rules impose greater obligations on us and others to protect customer calling information and to file formal reports with the FCC regarding procedures for protecting this information. Failure to comply is subject FCC enforcement. The new rules are effective six months after publication of the Order in the Federal Register or approval by the Office of Management and Budget, whichever is later. We do not expect these rules, and our ability to comply with these rules, to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A, should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Forward-Looking Statements

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to assess. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:
· | uncertainty of our future profitability; |

Except as required under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we do not have any intention or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements or risk factors after the distribution of this MD&A, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions or otherwise.
Overview
Founded in 1996, we are a leading provider of integrated VoIP telephony services, products, hosted solutions, and infrastructure. We offer customers high quality Internet telephony solutions that are viable and cost-effective alternatives to traditional telephone services. Supporting tens of thousands of active users around the world, we serve customers through our two primary distribution channels: the service provider and reseller channel, and the direct-to-consumer channel. Our advanced solutions offer service providers and resellers a full spectrum of private label VoIP products and services, as well as a back-office suite of services. Utilizing advanced Session Initiation Protocol technology, we provide all the components to support a complete VoIP service deployment. Our direct-to-consumer channel consists of our iConnectHere offering (which provides VoIP products and services directly to consumers and small businesses online using the same primary platform) and our joip offering (which serves as the exclusive VoIP service provider embedded in the Globarange cordless phones of Panasonic Communications).
During the second quarter of 2008, we began to see some signs of stabilization in terms of sequential revenue as the business realignment and cost reduction measures we began implementing in the first quarter of 2008 gained traction and the effects began to flow through to our financial performance. Following a comprehensive review of the company’s strategy initiated by the Board of Directors, we are refocusing our near-term strategy and market initiatives around our core VoIP reseller business, with an additional enhanced focus on key higher growth international markets such as the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Latin America, while still supporting our existing business segments in both the platform and iConnectHere business segments. As part of the restructuring of the business we:
· | Subleased our New York office to a third party, which will save the Company over $1.5 million over the next two years; |
· | Continued with the reduction in force that was initiated in the first quarter of 2008, as a result of which the Company has gone from approximately 120 full-time employees at the beginning of 2008 to 42; |
· | Analyzed our cost structure by line item and cut our expenses significantly; and |
· | Revamped our sales department, both in terms of seeking to use salespeople that will be located in the geographic markets in which we provide service and in terms of the compensation structure we utilize to incentivize our salespeople. |
The Company has recently decided not to invest significantly in one of the international markets that contained contracts that we acquired as part of the Go2Call transaction. As required by GAAP, we had previously assigned a monetary value to our rights in this international market as an intangible asset. Under GAAP, since this asset is now considered to be impaired as a result of our recent decision, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As a result, the Company has decided to write off $475,000, representing the entire amount of the asset allocated to that market, in the current period to properly adjust the value of the intangible asset associated with that asset.
We believe that the restructuring plan that has helped the Company cut it operating costs significantly and better align our operations with our current business model, but there are no assurances that these actions will be sufficient to return the Company to positive cash flow. At this time management is unable to determine if the Company has sufficient funds to continue its current operations over the foreseeable future if it does not receive additional financing. The Company is in the process of seeking additional financing, but has not yet entered into any definitive agreement or understanding regarding such financing.
The above items are forward-looking statements about our expectations for future performance. Actual results could differ materially.
Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2007
Revenues
Revenues decreased by approximately $5.1 million or 32.2% to approximately $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $15.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Revenues from VoIP telephony services through our reseller and service provider sales efforts (including sales of our Outsourced Platform Solution) decreased approximately $4.3 million or 32.3% to approximately $9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease in revenues is primarily due to intense competition in the wholesale and retail reseller markets, resulting in a drop in the number of minutes transported together with price reductions in key markets. In addition, the following factors have contributed to the decrease in our revenues:
· | The development agreement with Panasonic for joip expired during 2007, for which we recognized revenues in the first half of 2007 of approximately $807,000. In the first half of 2008 we only recognized $64,000 in revenues from our service agreement with Panasonic. We believe that this segment of our business will not be a future growth driver based on the current sales forecasts from Panasonic of the Globarange phones; |
· | The revenues in the first and second quarters of 2007 included approximately $1.6 million of revenues related to the Go2Call acquisition. However, this number fell by $849,000 or 51.8% to $790,000 for the first and second quarters of 2008. As with our other resellers, our retention of the Go2Call resellers suffered from increasing competition and falling rates; furthermore, many of the Go2Call resellers chose not to continue to work with us after we acquired Go2Call due to technical problems and a lack of familiarity with deltathree. In anticipation of this, the Company wrote-down its investment in Go2Call at December 31, 2007 and, as discussed above, has now written off its investment in another segment of the Go2Call business; and |
· | Revenues from VoIP telephony services (primarily PC-to-Phone and Broadband Phone) through iConnectHere have decreased by $0.7 million or 31.6% to approximately $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, due primarily to a lower number of PC-to-Phone and Broadband Phone calls being placed by a decreasing user base. |
Costs and Operating Expenses
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues decreased by approximately $2.9 million or 26.9% to approximately $7.9 million or approximately 26.9% gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $10.8 million or 32.0% gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The drop in gross margin can be attributable to competition that we have been experiencing in the reseller market. There have been significant pricing pressures put on the market, as a result of which our rates have dropped significantly in these markets. As part of our restructuring plan, we will begin to attempt to compete more aggressively in these markets going forward, which we believe will help us to raise revenues and increase our gross profit overall.
Research and development expenses. Research and development remained relatively flat at $2.2 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2008 and the six months ended June 30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses increased to 20.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from 13.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. We expect our research and development costs to drop over the next six months, as a significant portion of the costs incurred are related to salaries, which should decline as a result of the reduction in force discussed above. In addition, we do not plan to focus on developing new products in the near future, but rather expect to focus on our reseller division.
Selling and marketing expenses. Selling and marketing expenses decreased by approximately $0.1 million or 4.0% to approximately $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expenses increased to 22.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from 15.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.1 million or 7.7% to approximately $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 11.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from 7.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Included in general and administrative expenses for the period are certain one-time costs associated with the settlement with our vendor discussed under “Litigation” below of $240,000 and the costs associated with an outside consultant hired by the board to review our business plan of approximately $235,000, amounting to $475,000.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by approximately $300,000 or 23.1% to approximately $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 primarily due to two write downs of the intangible asset that we acquired as a result of the Go2Call acquisition as of December 31, 2007 and June 30, 2008, respectively, which changed the base value of this asset offset by overestimated amortization of $135,000 during the second quarter of 2008. Depreciation on our fixed assets has remained consistent.
Restructuring Costs. For the six month period ending June 30, 2008, we recorded reorganization expenses totaling approximately $0.9 million. No such expenses were recorded in the six month period ending June 30, 2007. The reorganization expenses are one-time costs related to (i) changes to the structure of our work force, including two reductions in force, that totaled approximately $0.3 million and (ii) the sublease of our New York office for the remaining term of the lease, for which we have accrued the shortfall between the rental amounts we will be receiving from the subtenant and the rental amount we need to pay to the landlord and legal costs associated with the sublease, legal costs and broker fees associated with the sublease, or approximately $0.6 million.
Write-down of Go2Call intangible asset. As part of its assessment of the Company’s operations, the management has reached the conclusion that we will not invest significant resources into a segment of the business that the Company purchased as part of the Go2Call transaction. As a result, the Company has decided to write off $475,000, representing the entire amount of the asset allocated to that portion of the business, in the current period to properly adjust the value of the intangible asset associated with that asset.
Deferred revenue restatement. During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company took a $200,000 charge as an initial estimate to the deferred revenue liability. As part of a continued review of the deferred revenue liability, the Company determined that amount was insufficient and should be adjusted for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, by an additional $396,000. Management has concluded that the error in the deferred revenue liability is not a result of its current operations but rather most likely occurred during the year ended December 31, 2005 and possibly years prior. Although the cumulative error might have been material to the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, management does not believe that restating the financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005, would have a material impact on the profit and loss statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007.
(Loss) Income from Operations
Net loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $6.1 million, compared to a net loss from operations of $2.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007. This was due primarily to the following:
· | A significant decrease in our revenue base of approximately $5.1 million, when comparing the period ended June 30, 2008 to the period ended June 30, 2007; |
· �� | A significant decrease of 47.1% or $2.4 million in the gross margin when comparing the period ended June 30, 2008 to the period ended June 30, 2007; |
· | The write down of the Go2call intangible asset of approximately $0.5 million; |
· | The adjustment to the deferred revenue liability of $0.6 million; |
· | A one-time reorganization expense of approximately $0.9 million; and |
· | An increase of approximately $0.4 million in general and administrative expenses related to professional fees for consultants providing strategic advisory services to the Company and costs associated with our ongoing litigation. |
Interest (expense) Income, Net
Interest (expense) income, net decreased by approximately $0.4 million to a net expense of approximately $0.1 million for the six months ending June 30, 2008 from net income of approximately $0.3 million for the six months ending June 30, 2007. The decrease is mainly due to the decrease in interest received on short-term investments and restricted cash, the weakness in the U.S. dollar and the corresponding strength of the Israeli Shekel and interest expense paid on capital assets leased.
Income Taxes, Net
We incurred net income taxes of approximately $15,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to approximately $27,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. There was no income tax provisions recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2008, because of our net loss in the period. We have not recorded any tax benefits due to our accrued net operating losses, as we believe that, based on our history of net operating losses and other factors, the evidence does not support the realization of the benefit of our net operating losses at this time. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against our net deferred tax assets. Management believes that we have enough usable net operating losses in the foreseeable future to offset any net income that we expect to generate at this time and that, if we will achieve net income in the future, we will have to reevaluate our valuation of our net operating losses and deferred tax assets.
Net Loss
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, we had a net loss of approximately $6.1 million, or $0.18 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 we had a net loss of approximately $2.0 million, or $0.06 per share. Expenses related to adoption of FAS 123R in the six months ended June 30, 2008 were approximately $0.1 million. The increase in net loss was due to the factors set forth above.
Results of Operations - Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2007
Revenues
Revenues decreased approximately $2.2 million or 29.1% to approximately $5.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Revenues from VoIP telephony services through our reseller and service provider sales efforts (including sales of our Outsourced Platform Solution) decreased approximately by $1.8 million or 28.2% to approximately $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease in revenues is primarily due to intense competition in the wholesale and retail reseller markets, resulting in a drop in the number of minutes transported together with price reductions in key markets. In addition, the following factors have contributed to the decrease in our revenues:
· | The development agreement with Panasonic for joip expired during 2007, for which we recognized revenues in the second quarter of 2007 of approximately $0.4 million. In the second quarter of 2008 we only recognized $34,000 in revenues from our service agreement with Panasonic. We believe that this segment of our business will not be a future growth driver based on the current sales forecasts from Panasonic of the Globarange phones; |
· | The revenues in the second quarter of 2007 included approximately $1.1 million of revenues from the Go2Call acquisition. However, this number fell by $703,000 or 66.7% to $351,000 for the first and second quarters of 2008. As with our other resellers, our retention of the Go2Call resellers suffered from increasing competition and falling rates; furthermore, many of the Go2Call resellers chose not to continue to work with us after we acquired Go2Call due to technical problems and a lack of familiarity with deltathree. In anticipation of this, the Company wrote-down its investment in Go2Call at December 31, 2007 and, as discussed above, has now written off its investment in another segment of the Go2Call business; and |
· | Revenues from VoIP telephony services (primarily PC-to-Phone and Broadband Phone) through iConnectHere have decreased by $0.3 million or 31.4% to approximately $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2007, due primarily to a lower number of PC-to-Phone and Broadband Phone calls being placed by a decreasing user base. |
Costs and Operating Expenses
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues decreased by approximately $1.5 million or 26.8 % to approximately $4.1 million or approximately 24.7% gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $5.6 million or 27.0% gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The drop in gross margin can be attributable to competition that we have been experiencing in the reseller market. There have been significant pricing pressures put on the market, as a result of which own rates have dropped significantly in our markets. As part of our restructuring plan, we will attempt to compete more aggressively in these markets going forward, which we believe will help us raise revenues and increase our gross profit overall.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses remained relatively flat at $1.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2008 and the three months ended June 30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses increased to 20.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from 14.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2007. We expect our research and development costs to drop over the next six months, as a significant portion of the costs incurred are related to salaries, which should decline as result of the reduction in force discussed above.
Selling and marketing expenses. Selling and marketing expenses slightly decreased by approximately $0.1 million or 7.7% to approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expenses increased to 22.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from 17.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The cost of marketing efforts during the three months ended June 30, 2008 was reduced by the decrease in sales commissions’ expenses resulting from the revenue decline.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.2 million or 33.3% to approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to an increase in payroll and related expenses. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 14.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from 7.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Included in general and administrative expenses for the period are certain one-time costs associated with the settlement with our vendor discussed below under “Litigation” of $0.1 million and the costs associated with an outside consultant hired by the board to review our business plan of approximately $0.1 million, amounting to $0.2 million.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by approximately $0.4 million or 12.5% to approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 primarily due to two write downs of the intangible asset that we acquired as a result of the Go2Call transaction as of December 31, 2007 and June 30, 2008, respectively, which changed the base value of this asset offset by overestimated amortization of the intangible asset by approximately of $135,000 during the second quarter of 2008.
Restructuring Costs. For the three month period ending June 30, 2008, we recorded reorganization expenses totaling approximately $0.6 million. No such expenses were recorded in the three month period ending June 30, 2007. The reorganization expenses are one-time costs related to (i) changes to the structure of our work force, including a reduction in force that totaled approximately $70,000 and (ii) the sublease of our New York office for the remaining term of the lease, for which we have accrued the shortfall between the rental amounts we will be receiving from the subtenant and the rental amount we need to pay to the landlord and legal costs associated with the sublease, legal costs and broker fees associated with the sublease, or approximately $0.5 million.

(Loss) Income from Operations
Net loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $3.2 million, compared to a net loss from operations of $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2007. This was due primarily to the following:
· | A significant decrease in our revenue base of approximately $2.2 million, when comparing the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 to second quarter of fiscal year 2007; |
· | A significant decrease of 30% or $0.6 million in the gross margin when comparing the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 to second quarter of fiscal year 2007; |
· | The write down of the Go2Call intangible asset of approximately $0.5 million; |
· | The adjustment to the deferred revenue liability of approximately $0.4 million; and |
· | A one-time reorganization expense of approximately $0.5 million. |
Interest (expense) income, Net
Interest (expense) income, net decreased by approximately $236,000 to approximately $61,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from interest income net approximately $175,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease is mainly due to the decrease in interest received on short-term investments and restricted cash, the weakness in the U.S. dollar and the corresponding strength of the Israeli Shekel and interest expense paid on capital assets leased.
Income Taxes, Net
We incurred net income taxes of approximately $9,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to approximately $17,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. There was no income tax provisions recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2008 because we had a net loss in the period. We have not recorded any tax benefits due to our accrued net operating losses, as we believe that, based on our history of net operating losses and other factors, the evidence does not support the realization of the benefit of our net operating losses at this time. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against our net deferred tax assets. Management believes that we have enough usable net operating losses in the foreseeable future to offset any net income that we expect to generate at this time and understands that, if we will achieve net income in the future, we will have to reevaluate our valuation of our net operating losses and deferred tax assets.
Net Loss
For the three months ended June 30, 2008 we had a net loss of approximately $3.2 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2007 we had a net loss of approximately $1.6 million. Expenses related to adoption of FAS 123R in the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $72,421. The increase in the net loss was due to the factors set forth above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception in 1996, we have incurred significant operating and net losses, due in large part to the start-up and development of our operations. As of June 30, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $166.8 million.
As of June 30, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.2 million, restricted cash and short-term investments of approximately $2.9 million, long-term investments of $1.1 million or a total of $4.2 million in cash, restricted cash, short and long term investments, a decrease of $4.4 million, as compared to December 31, 2007. The decrease in cash, restricted cash, and short and long term investments noted was primarily caused by the net cash used in operating activities of approximately $4.1 million.
We generated negative cash flow from operating activities of approximately $4.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to negative cash flow from operating activities of approximately $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease in our cash generated from operating activities was primarily driven by an increase in our net loss to $5.1 million offset by our restatement of deferred revenues of approximately $0.6 million and our write-off a portion of our intangible assets of approximately $0.5 million.
Our capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $0.2 million compared to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. We continued to make moderate investments, and began leasing fixed assets, to optimize our overall utilization of our existing domestic and international network infrastructure.
The Company has sustained significant operating losses in recent periods, which has led to a significant reduction in its cash reserves. The Company has initiated a restructuring plan that has helped the Company cut it operating costs significantly and better align our operations with its current business model, but there are no assurances that these reductions in costs will be sufficient to return the Company to positive cash flow. At this time management is unable to determine if the Company has sufficient funds to continue its current operations over the foreseeable future if it does not receive additional financing. The Company is in the process of seeking additional financing, but has not yet entered into any definitive agreement or understanding regarding such financing and we cannot assure you that any third party will be willing or able to provide additional capital to us on favorable terms or at all. In addition, if additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, our existing stockholders may experience significant dilution.
The federal securities law requires that we describe and quantify our potential losses from market risk sensitive instruments attributable to reasonably possible market changes. Market risk sensitive instruments include all financial or commodity instruments and other financial instruments (such as investments and debt) that are sensitive to future changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, commodity prices or other market factors. We believe our exposure to market risk is not material.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, with the participation of our management, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and timely reported as provided in the SEC rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
On or about August 30, 2007, one of our vendors commenced an action in the Southern District of New York against us for breach of contract, copyright infringement, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing and replevin relating to a license agreement that we entered into with the vendor in 2005 to license the vendor's software. In addition, the vendor sought a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction prohibiting us from using the software during the course of the litigation, which was denied. On February 4, 2008, we filed a motion for partial summary judgment, to which the other side submitted a reply. Although we denied any liability, we argued that the agreement between us and such vendor clearly limited the amount of our total liability to the aggregate amounts we had paid such vendor ($111,350). Rather than incur the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) that would be required to defend the action – which we believed would be greater than $111,350 – we petitioned the court to require the vendor to accept such amount from us as a full and final settlement of all amounts owing between the parties and, upon our tendering such amount, to dismiss the case. On April 29, 2008, our motion was denied on the grounds that the parties were still in dispute as to the total amount of royalty payments required to be paid by us to such vendor under the license agreement.
On June 19, 2008, the parties executed a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release pursuant to which, among other things, deltathree made a cash payment to the vendor and each of the parties fully released the other party from any and all claims with respect to the subject matter of the action. On July 7, 2008, the vendor filed a Stipulation of Dismissal and Proposed Order dismissing the action with prejudice, which was approved by the court.
We, as well as certain of our former officers and directors, were named as co-defendants in a number of purported securities class actions in United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, arising out of our initial public offering, or IPO, in November 1999. In addition, a number of other issuers and underwriters of public offerings of such issuers (including the underwriters of our IPO) were named as defendants in such class action suits in connection with such public offerings. A proposed omnibus settlement between the plaintiffs and certain issuer defendants (including us) was suspended when the district court signed a stipulation terminating the settlement approval process. The case is currently being litigated against a small number of focus issuers (which does not include the Company) selected by the district court. If the settlement does not occur, and litigation against us recommences, we believe that we have meritorious defenses to the claims us and we intend to defend the case vigorously.
We are not a party to any other material litigation and are not aware of any other pending litigation that could have a material adverse effect on us or our business taken as a whole.
See Exhibit Index on page 22 for a description of the documents that are filed as Exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or incorporated by reference herein.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
